Whoever takes it first will bear the great sin, and these 200,000 iron horses, only Chen Zhibao can afford it.

Change to anyone else, even if it is Chen Zhibao's deputy general, as long as the first one takes it, the head will not be saved.

The Lord will take the lead, even if Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Liang, is blamed in the end, it will not be the turn of the people below to take responsibility.

Thousands of baskets of baked cakes, easily, disintegrated the battle intent of the 200,000 Northern Liang Iron Riders.

That is, the right time and place and the right people can do it.

First, there is a shortage of food in the north

Second, rely on Lin Xuan's personal prestige

The third relies on the relationship between Yanzhou and Northern Liang

Even if they are fighting each other now, in the eyes of many old pawns of Northern Liang, Yanzhou and Northern Liang are still one.

Because Yanhou, Yanzhou Taishou, from the Yipin Great General Lin Xuan came out of Northern Liang.

Even if you stand on your own, you can still break the bones and connect the tendons.

"You're too insidious."

Inside the city

Jiang Ni leaned over to his side and whispered, "In this way, Chen Zhi Leopard will definitely not have good fruit to eat when he goes back." "

"It's not stupid."

Lin Xuan patted her head and teased, "I can actually see it." "

"That's not it."

The bridge of her nose twitched: "This girl is not a fool, how can she not even see through such a shallow strategy." "

"Really fake."

Lin Xuan was surprised: "It must be Meng Jiao and you who said it." "

"Nope."

Jiang Ni's eyes rolled and he retorted, "I guessed it myself." "

"Don't believe it."

He shook his head.

"Hou Ye, it was Sister Jiang who saw it."

To the look of help in Jiang Ni's eyes, Meng Jiao could only say against his will.

The courtyard in the city has long been ready, just move in, although small, but extremely exquisite.

Although the entire Heavenly Trap Pass is not as big as Yanzhou City, it is not small, comparable to Yangsui, and it is more than enough to station an army of more than 100,000.

"I've seen Hou Ye."

Most of the slaves in the courtyard were selected from the families of the soldiers, and they were clever and capable.

"Boom"

With a thunderclap, the sky that had been released began to rain lightly, and dark clouds gathered from all directions.

"It's annoying under the rain."

Meng Jiao summoned the slave and said, "Hurry up and bring the wine and dishes." "

"No."

The slave stepped down

Not often

A few people sat in the hall, and the table was filled with many seasonal dishes, chicken, duck, fish and meat, and an altar of wine. 13 "Hou Ye, you shouldn't have drunk. "

Meng Jiao picked up the altar and got up to pour the wine: "You are here today, make an exception." "

"First of all, before Hou Ye came, I didn't drink in the past few months."

Adding the drink, Meng Jiao swallowed his saliva and rubbed his hands, a little impatient, obviously aroused by the gluttony.

"The news of the war of the cold python tomorrow should reach Chen Zhibao's ears."

Picking up the drink and taking a sip, he said, "Be sure to watch them." "

"Hou Ye rest assured."

The refreshing bamboo leaves and green mouth, the lips and teeth are fragrant, and then it turns into a spicy warm current in the abdomen, which spreads throughout the body.

Meng Jiao smashed his mouth twice, which was very enjoyable.

"Chen Zhibao wants to leave, you have to ask me first, do you agree or not."

Outside the temple

Hu Yanlie, Qin Yuanba, and a few partial generals had just entered the courtyard when they smelled the wine.

"Old Meng, Hou Ye, actually don't wait for us."

Hu Yanlie took three steps and made two steps, rushed into the main hall, he followed Lin Xuan for more than ten years, belonging to the henchman of the henchmen, but there were not so many restraints.

Qin Yuanba and the other partial generals did not dare to be so presumptuous, but after Lin Xuan smiled and beckoned, they still calmly sat down.

"Go get two more drinks."

He said to Meng Jiao: "Don't drink much, two bowls per person." "

"Thank you Hou Ye."

Qin Yuanba and several people rubbed their fists.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and the atmosphere gradually became lively, Lin Xuan put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth: "These days, they cheer me up, if anyone loses the big because of the small, when the military law falls, don't blame Benhou for being ruthless." "

All the generals in the hall know the bottom line, and if they do things unfavorably, they will not be able to rise step by step.

But Lin Xuan's rules, every time before the war, must be strictly admonished, so as not to make these fierce generals arrogant and negligent.

"Humble sober."

The generals spoke in unison.

They are all martial arts masters, strong physique, full of internal qi, not to mention two bowls of wine, even if they have one hundred and eighty bowls of spirits, they can also stay awake.

When the generals dispersed, it was late at night, and the rain outside gradually increased, the night was gloomy, and the smoke and rain were hazy.

The candles in the hall flickered, emitting a faint light, Ginger untied his armor and sabre, closed the door, and the mandarin ducks played in the water, the long night was long, and he had no intention of sleeping.

"Woooo

"Woooo

At noon, Lin Xuan was practicing his sword in the courtyard when a loud horn sounded, followed by the ground shaking.

Tens of thousands of iron horses came out of the sky and went towards the Northern Liang camp, originally Chen Zhibao wanted to withdraw the army, but before he left the camp, he was alarmed by the roar of the Yanzhou iron horse rushing formation.

And so on, after a few days, 200,000 iron horses could not advance or retreat.

Now it is not a matter of withdrawing or not withdrawing troops, if Chen Zhibao makes up his mind to withdraw, leaving tens of thousands of iron horses to fight to the death after breaking off, he can completely delay himself.

But what about the latter thing?

Does the whole Youzhou still want it?

These 200,000 iron horses and the 100,000 iron horses of Shuoyin dared to draw to the north to block the Beizhu army, and the more than 100,000 Yanzhou iron horses in the Heavenly Trap Pass dared to step on Yanzhou.

Not to mention that at this time, Lin Xuan personally sat in the Heavenly Trap Pass, if he led the troops, I was afraid that before the Liang Python War was over, the entire Youzhou would have already fallen into the hands of the Yanzhou Iron Horse.

Chen Zhi Leopard could not retreat, could not stop Beiqi, Chen Zhi Leopard retreated, could not stop Yanzhou.

Choose one of the two

In the entire Beiliang, only one person can make this choice, and must also make a choice.

Cool down the mountain

Northern Liang Royal Mansion

Xu Xiao had not slept for three days and nights, his eyes were red, his face was gloomy, and he walked around the hall with his back to his back, restless.

Every half hour, a quick horse enters the house to deliver information.

"Wang Ye, the 200,000 iron horsemen in Beiqi, the army is divided into three roads, one all the way to Shuoyin, all the way to Zangcheng, and all the way to Shuobeicheng.

Among them, the Northern City was the most dangerous, with a total army of 100,000. "

"Wang Ye, the Beiqi army is storming the North City."

"Wang Ye, the tiger and leopard rider general Xu Guangda eight hundred li rushed, and requested to send soldiers and horses to help."

One war report after another was delivered to Qingliangshan

"Send troops."

"Where else is Lao Tzu in his hands."

Xu Xiao cursed, and after scolding, he summoned the guards: "Send another 20,000 people to aid Beicheng." "

"Wang Ye and slow."

The scribe walked in, waved his hand, and the guards around him retreated.

"Beiqi still has 150,000 troops in Orange Prefecture, and it can increase its troops at any time."

"The city has become an isolated city, not to mention sending another 20,000 people, it is sending another 40,000 people, and 80,000 people will not help."

The scribe's face was solemn: "Instead of increasing troops to resist Beicheng, it is better to send 20,000 people to Zangcheng, where there are only 20,000 defenders, and they can't stop Beizhu's 50,000 army, if Zangcheng falls into Beiqi's hands, its army commander can drive straight into the hinterland of Beiliang." "

"You want to use Beicheng and Haw Pard Ride as bait?"

Xu Xiao was so clever that he understood what he meant almost instantly.

"When there is continuity, it will be chaotic."

The scribe nodded: "Although the tiger and leopard riding is elite, there is no shortage of these 30,000 people in Beiliang, not to mention, the soldiers in the tiger and leopard riding are still towards Yanhou in their hearts."

If Yan Hou came to the cold and cheered up, these 30,000 tiger and leopard riders would definitely rise up in response to the call and join his command.

Instead of leaving it to the Marquis of Yan, it is better to let them hold the Northern City and drag down the main forces of the Northern Dynasty.

When Chen Zhibao withdrew from the Heavenly Trap Pass with an army of 200,000, he came out from the eastern front and ate the 200,000 army in Beizhu in one go.

If it goes well, within ten years, Beiqi will not be able to go south and invade the cool land, and Hou Ye will also have a chance to breathe. "

"Otherwise, after this battle, I will be cold and slumped."

"Thirty thousand people, how can they stop the 100,000-strong army of the Northern Python?"

Xu Xiao was a little worried, and at the same time a little reluctant.

The tiger and leopard riding is the façade of Northern Liang, and it is also the elite of the elite under him, who has been fighting in the south and the north for more than ten years and has made great battle achievements.

"With the strength of the tiger and leopard horse, even if Beiqi increases its troops, it can support at least half a month."

The scribe said: "In a war, where there are immortals, when these 30,000 tigers and leopards are killed and injured, the Northern Python army will also pay a heavy price."

At that time, Wang Ye can regain a tiger and leopard ride that is truly loyal to the Xu Zi King Banner. "

He hugged his fist: "I also asked Wang Ye to give an order, and ordered Xu Guangda to lead the tiger and leopard to ride and resist the North City." "

Xu Xiao pondered for a moment, wrote a secret letter, stamped the great seal of the King of Northern Liang, and sent people eight hundred li to rush to the city of Shubei.

"Two hundred thousand iron horses, I am afraid it will not be easy to withdraw from the Heavenly Trap Pass."

This Northern Liang King slumped in his chair: "That little king bastard must have a lion open his mouth." "

"What Yan Hou wants is nothing more than the land of several counties in Youzhou."

The scribe: "To him, with my understanding of Yanhou, this man is insatiable and calculating, at this time, the army of Beiqi is all placed in the cool land, he will not miss this opportunity, and he is likely to send troops to the north to fight the python."

This Youzhou county is not given in vain, and he must send troops. "

"How many counties?"

Xu Xiao snorted coldly: "I can't help but look down on Yan Hou too much, believe it or not, as soon as he opens his mouth, he wants the entire Youzhou." "

"Ask for a price, pay it back."

The scribe shook his head: "Even if we want to give it, the imperial court will not allow it, and the king of Qingzhou will not allow it." (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

That Son of Heaven wanted to maintain the balance of the land of Liangyan, so that the two tigers could compete and the fishermen would benefit.

The Son of Heaven and the imperial court will not let Northern Liang fall. "

"Send someone."

Xu Xiao waved his hand, only feeling extremely tired: "I'm too tired." "

"I really want to sleep like this and never wake up."

As soon as his eyes closed, he couldn't help but ask, "What is Shizi doing?" "

"I am listening to the Chao Pavilion, practicing swords with Senior Li."

The scribe replied.

"It's okay."

Xu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Finally know to do something serious."

"Ming'er asked him to come and deal with government affairs together."

"Send someone to the Heavenly Trap Pass and tell Lin Xuan that King Ben is willing to take out the three counties of Youzhou and put them into the boundary of Yanzhou in exchange for Yanzhou retreating."

"No."

The scribe nodded.

A few days later

When the sky fell and closed, the scorching sun was high, sprinkling golden light, and basking into the courtyard, Lin Xuan, who was dressed in a white robe, was holding a long knife and was practicing knife techniques one by one.

Each knife is extremely unpretentious, without any fancy skills, and with the pace, the knife moves are extremely coherent.

Open and close, or cut or chop, or split or stab.

Gingni walked out of the room, holding a fruit in his hand, and sat down on a stone bench in the shade, his legs crossed, his mouth humming, and his eyes looked at the white-robed man.

"Hou Ye."

Meng Jiao strode in and smiled happily: "The envoy of Northern Liang has arrived, just outside the pass, do you want to see it." "

"Put it in first."

Lin Xuan didn't reply, "Leave him dry for two days." "

"No."

Meng Jiao left.

After practicing the knife technique for several hours, his body was steaming, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and then he stopped.

"Snap"

With a flick of his wrist, Jiang Ni firmly caught the swallow knife and put it into its sheath.

"Drink tea."

She put the long knife back in the room and brought a cup of herbal tea.

"After waiting for several months, Xu Xiao, this old thing, finally bowed his head."

Lin Xuan smiled and said, "I knew this earlier, so why bother." "

"At the moment, he sent an army of 200,000 to attack Benhouye, but it caused today's disaster."

"Remember no."

He looked at Jiang Ni next to him and said, "A soldier and a pawn have a wonderful use, not to mention thousands of troops, let alone trespass."

If there is a slight difference, it is a loss in the whole game, and if you are not careful, you don't even know how to die. "

"What are you talking to me about?"

Confused, Jiang Ni took the empty teacup and said, "I don't command the army to fight." "

"It doesn't hurt to write a little more."

He shook his head: "The art of war pays attention to the momentum, there are internal and external forces, I rely on the momentum of 200,000 iron horses in Yanzhou, and then attract the general trend of the Northern Python, even if it is invincible, the arrogant and domineering King of Northern Liang has to bow his head." "

"I don't understand."

Gingni pouted.

"So unteachable."

He quipped: "I also say that I am smart, I think I am really stupid." "

Two days later, Lin Xuan received the envoy of Northern Liang, and opened his mouth to ask for the entire Youzhou, plus 500,000 stone grain and grass, and 50,000 war horses.

In the end, it was good to say that it descended to the six counties of Youzhou, 300,000 stone grain and grass and 40,000 war horses.

At this price of 603 yards, he was no longer in Songkou, and the messenger could only leave, return to Qingliangshan, and report to Xu Xiaoyu.

A few days later

Northern Liang sent an envoy again, and Lin Xuan reduced the price, as long as the six counties of Youzhou, but the envoy did not agree.

Inside the courtyard

Watching the back of the third Northern Liang messenger drift away, Jiang Ni withdrew his gaze and returned to the hall.

"There are seven counties in Youzhou, and you want five counties when you open your mouth, how can Xu Xiao agree?"

She spoke.

"If you don't agree, you will drag."

Lin Xuan picked up the teacup, looked calm, and said lightly: "Anyway, every day it drags on, the situation in Beiliang becomes more serious, and my grasp is one more point."

I can afford to procrastinate, it is nothing more than consuming a few more days of food and grass, but Xu Xiao and Beiliang can't afford to drag it out.

Benhou lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of grain and grass and money. "

"The imperial court will not sit idly by and watch Northern Liang fall, nor will it allow the Northern Zhu army to go south, let alone allow Yanzhou to become bigger."

Jiang Ni was worried: "If you continue to drag on, if the imperial court intervenes and rushes to the aid of Northern Liang, your calculations will be in vain at that time." "

"It takes at least half a month for the imperial court to raise grain and grass, and at least half a month to send it over, and a month at the earliest."

Lin Xuan chuckled: "When their grain and grass are delivered, the yellow cauliflower is cold." "

"And King Qingzhou."

Jiang Ni said, "If the imperial court orders that grain and grass be transported from Qingzhou, it will only take a few days. "

"King Qingzhou?"

He took a sip of tea and said confidently: "Benhou gave him ten boldness, and he didn't dare to transport grain and grass to Beiliang, not to mention that even if he wanted to be lucky, he couldn't get to Beiliang without Benhou's permission."

Yanzhou Iron Rider, only need to cross the Qingyu Pass to enter the Qingzhou realm, compared to Beiliang, it is much faster. "

"Aren't you afraid of being provoked by the Son of Heaven and the ruling and wild?"

Gingni asked.

"You should ask them, are you afraid of the 200,000 Yanzhou iron horses under Benhou."

Lin Xuan shook his head: "This piece of fat meat in Youzhou, Ben Gongzi has eaten it, who dares to stop me, Ben Hou will gnaw bigger meat from him." "

"It is worthy of being a righteous father and a righteous son."

She quipped: "It's like a mold carved out, no, it should be better than blue out of blue, you are more scheming, more arrogant, and more unscrupulous than Xu Xiao." "

"He is so bad that he doesn't dare to tear his face with the imperial court in the open, you are good, you want to step on Qingzhou at any time."

"Watch it."

Lin Xuan glared at Jiang Ni angrily, who shrunk his neck and playfully stuck out his tongue.

"In a few days, the envoy of Northern Liang should come again."

Sure enough

Five days later

The fourth messenger sent by Xu Xiao came to the Heavenly Trap Pass, still the old rule, first two days before receiving him.

"My subordinates have seen Hou Ye."

Inside the lobby

Lin Xuan was sitting with a big horse golden knife, on both sides of his side, many fierce generals in the guan were there, one by one, they were wearing armor and straddling the knife, their faces were gloomy, and they mixed up and down, exuding an icy murderous aura.

The tiger idiot is holding a horse chopping knife, carrying Shicun Baizhuang, guarding inside and outside, and his burly body exudes the aura of a beast.

The broken army in a black robe and Jiang Ni in a white dress each stood behind Lin Xuan, holding a sword in his arms.

The Northern Liang messenger bowed and clasped his fists, and his heart was apprehensive.
